I tweeted about this on 1 December 2015.

 

Remember back in October I posted about some funding for the film.  Well this is now in addition to that funding.

According to CineEuropa:

“At the German-French Film Meeting, the funding committee greenlit an amount of €849,000 for four German-French co-productions. The projects that are being supported by the mini-traité include Rückkehr nach Montauk by Volker Schlöndorff, High Life by Claire Denis, Die Sanfte by Sergei Loznitsa and Diamond Island by Davy Chou.”

We get a little more information from the FFA  (thanks to @Sallyvg):

“Furthermore, the Commission supports with 319,000 euros, the project HIGH LIFE by Claire Denis (35 RUM) with “Twilight” star Robert Pattinson in the lead role. The co-produced by Pandora Film science fiction drama revolves around a prisoner who is participating in a dangerous space mission to escape his death sentence.

Production funding

HIGH LIFE
Director: Claire Denis Producer D: Pandora Filmproduktion GmbH, Cologne (47%) Promotion D: 160,000 Euro Producer Q: Alcatraz Films, Paris (37%) Promotion Q: 159.000 Euro producer UK: The Apocalypse Films

For those wondering about The Apocalypse Films, this is Producer Oliver Dungey’s company.  You may recall The Film Stage quoted Oliver as saying:

“I am delighted that Claire has been tempted to cross the channel and make a film in English; she is one of the greats of contemporary cinema and she’s assembled a quite extraordinary team to make exactly the kind of ambitious film that audiences cherish – completely original, genuinely pushing the boundaries of art and science and, above all, extremely entertaining.”

One step closer I guess.
